Andrew Brady, who was at one point engaged to Caroline, shared an emotional tribute to her on a WordPress document. In the piece he speaks at length of how much he loved Caroline and misses her.

He wrote: “Tomorrow is the one-year anniversary of Caroline’s death, the person I loved more than anyone I ever thought possible.

“Not a day goes by that I don’t think of her, I have some truly incredible memories of her etched on to my mind for eternity.”

Andrew also spoke of her many great qualities, including how kind and beautiful she was.

He wrote: “Caroline had a beautiful soul, a perfect smile, a contagious laugh, an interesting story and she had an incredibly complex mind. She had such a unique energy and presence, like nothing I have felt.

“She was so talented, she was so intelligent, she was so friendly and she was so beautiful. But her heart, that was trapped in barbed wire from all the negativity and judgement she sustained for so long.”
